Homeless Friendly

The map is back! Can you help us fill the gaps this summer?

We are looking for volunteer dentists and dental nurses across the UK to help us deliver care to those who need it most.

We’ll be partnering with charities supporting people experiencing homelessness, vulnerable members of the community, families living in poverty, refugees and people seeking asylum, to ensure the most vulnerable have access to the emergency dental care they need.

With just a few hours of your time, you can make a real difference to someone’s life.

If you can help please drop us a message or register your interest here https://my.dentaid.org/expression-of-interest – and please share this post to spread the word!

Perhaps we need to rethink our attitude towards people who are struggling 😢

A homeless man died of hunger but there was food at his funeral.

Oscar Wilde.

Wilde was the undisputed king of the Victorian social scene before a spectacular fall from grace led to his imprisonment and early death. He was a man who understood both the surface-level polish of high society and the cold reality of the gutter. This quote serves as a stinging critique of a world that values the appearance of mourning over the substance of mercy.

In our current era, the message remains a sharp rebuke of performative empathy. We often find it easier to contribute to a memorial fund than to a living person's survival. The irony of the funeral feast is a mirror held up to our misplaced priorities, reminding us that respect is best served to those who can still feel its warmth.

When was the last time we prioritized a person's dignity while they were still here to witness it?

A strong alert with a detailed description of the individual, their location, and recognisable details gives outreach workers the best chance to reach them.

Your alert helps connect someone sleeping rough to warmth, safety and support.
